Re: Release: 2008.233.0533Z-odin

Hi Brian (or should I call you Spicy?)

Man YOU ROCK!

Back when you announced an early release of camelbox, the reason I
enquired about gnomecanvas support was because that was the major
missing piece to enable Sprog to run on Windows.  Now you've even thrown
Sprog itself into the bundle.

So I booted my laptop up into Windows, installed camelbox, fired up
Sprog and it worked!  (Yay for Perl's cross-platform portability).
There are a few bits of functionality that don't work quite right but
the fact that it runs at all is kind of amazing.

Hopefully I'll be able to put some time into fixing the broken bits
soonish.

The downside of all this was that I experienced Windows again for the
first time in a while and was reminded of what a woeful environment it
is for getting things done :-(

Thanks again
Grant
